Hi, my name is Kara! I just finished up several years of living and working seasonally in the Florida Keys, California’s Channel Islands, and New Zealand before landing for good on the coast of Maine. I have guided backpacking trips across the U.S. for close to a decade now and also work full-time in land conservation. I am a Wilderness First Responder and a Search and Rescue volunteer. I hike, surf, and ski every chance I get.

My name is Lindsay Morales, and I’m a 33 year old mom and outdoor enthusiast. While I’m working on hiking through the 67 highest peaks in New England, I have the most fun hiking with my five year old son and I’ve loved watching how confident he’s become on the trails. Monday through Friday, I work in financial crimes but during the weekends you can bet that we’re on an adventure!

Hello fellow Maine hikers! I'm Josh Ingram, and I'm a preschool teacher currently living in Ellsworth. I grew up all over the Northeast U.S., lived in South Korea and New Zealand for 15 years before returning to the coast of Maine to live. Believe it or not, I take all my photos with an iPhone...that was on the bottom of a lake for a week! Check out my adventures on Instagram below!

Hello! My name is Esme Freeman. I am a 24 year old photographer/hiking enthuisast from Midcoast Maine. In recent years I have begun exploring the world of hiking, and have made it my goal to share our unique landscapes so everyone can enjoy them. Follow along on my adventures on my Instagram.

Hi! My name Christina Monagle. When I’m not out hiking or taking in a sunrise I’m a Senior Director for a company that serves people with disabilities and brain injury. I swear it’s the best job ever! I love taking beautiful photos as much as I love nature and being active. I’m always on the go and I never know where I’ll end up but I love making new friends so if you see me on the trails please say hello!
